If I'm not mistaken Wuahaha selling GF2 + 20mm. Those who are interested can try PM him.

hey guys...do you guys use uv filter/lens hood on your m.zuiko 14-42mm lens?

opps. what is "f1.7" ?? newbie here. still learning ^^

nope. Its a cheap lens. Normally UV filter is for protection for expensive lens. If you buy cheap UV filter, then
your picture will degrade. Normally we recommend getting Hoya Pro 1D filter. The price is RM100 like that.

f/1.7 is opening of aperture. THe smaller number means opening bigger. Opening bigger more light and your
picture brighter and no need to increase ISO. Also the smaller the number, you can get bokeh.

is it pancake lens cannot zoom ??

yeah.. i think pancake lens is like a prime lens, where the focal length is fixed. Normally if twin kit for gf2 is how much? Hoping to get 20mm+14-42mm twin kit. How about epl-2? How does it fares with gf2? I saw good reviews, summore cheaper abit ><

After looking thru the forum, much ppl selling gf2 with 14mm and 14-42mm kit lens only.. >< if paired with 20mm is kinda exp tho... dunno worth it or not.. how much normally ppl sell their kit-lens? with 20mm lens+body the price is higher than 14mm+14-42mm lens+body. I scare 14mm is not good enuf for me as i wanna shoot indoor/low-light photo..

To those who might be interested in getting 20mm and 14mm.

So conclusion is forget about 14mm and get the 20mm F1.7

For me, its: Wait for a better bright wide.

there is a rumor about a 12-50mm f2.5 from Panasonic. I hope its true

if true, then geng. Effective 24-100mm.... f/2.5...

But price must be crazy i think....

should i get only the kit lens and the body? then when i got the money i will get the 20mm pancake lens. Or should i just get the 14mm pancake+kit lens? becos the 14mm is kinda good when i wanna do P&S, but need to fork out extra 400 for twin lens.

I suggest you save another 400 for twin lens. Twin lens is good as 14mm is light and small, but 1442 is good for travel. Of course you can buy 14mm or 20mm later, but it will cost you more.

I'm using 17mm f/2.8. And after I get this pancake, I seldom use the kit lens. So yes, if I were you, I'll get the pancake also because that's
the reason we getting a m43.

When I go travel in Koh Samui, I only bring 17mm f/2.8 and no problem to get good picture.

Of course, if I were to choose again, I might get Olympus XZ1 with f/1.8 lens...hahaha....

oh kk... becos i dunno i should save the rm400 for 20mm or just use it to get 14mm one.. Becos my application is more towards getting good photo under low light condition where the 20mm pancake is good at. But the pancake is like rm1.2k.. need save alot to get it haha..

rm400 only mah... just geddit... sell it when u getting 20mm...

for me, 17mm f/2.8 also plenty good in low light...probably because i use olympus with sensor IS... =.=||

oh haha... probably i will just get the twin lens, 14mm is good becos its compact enuf .. then how is epl2? any improvement over epl1 other than size?
